CHRISTCHURCH.
This day.
The north-west gale did considerable damage in the : country districts. Two buildings, and several partly erected were blown down, and others were moved off the piles. Innumerable windows were smashed. The damage to the Northern Eailway will take a week to repair. The Eakaia and Ashburton rivers are higher than has been known for years, but did no damage.
Thq Canterbury Jockey : Club, after a long discussion, resolved to endorse the decision of the Dunedin Club in removing the disqualification in .Fishhook's case.
As an instance of the value of freehold property in Christchurch, a building site in High street, opposite the Triangle, has been let for 33 years at £16 13s 4d per foot.
